South London Clays and Gravels 17. South London Clays & Gravels Key plan Description The South London Clays and Gravels is an extensive Natural Landscape Area that incorporates parts of 9 boroughs - Kingston, Sutton, Merton, Wandsworth, Croydon, Lambeth, Bromley, Southwark & Lewisham. It extends south and west from Deptford towards Streatham and New Malden. It is bordered by two river systems, the Wandle (NLA 16) and the Ravensbourne (NLA 8) to the east and west, and by the North Downs Lower Dip Slope (NLA 21) to the south. The whole area is underlain by London Clay, but in places (Crystal Palace and Chessington) the Clay is capped by the younger, more resistant strata of the Claygate Member to form ridges. At Crystal Palace the ridge is particularly prominent and extends north–south from Forest Hill to Upper Norwood, with superb views across to the Isle of Dogs and the City and, to the south, to Croydon and the North 17. South London Clays & Gravels Downs. To the south of this ridge, the older rocks of the Harwich Formation (pebbly beds) and the gravelly sands and clays of the Lambeth Group crop out in the Thornton Heath and Carshalton areas. This out crop does not correspond to an obvious variation in landform, but the sandy soils associated with the Lambeth Group tend to support heathland and this is also suggested by some local place names. The oldest rocks are in the Deptford area to the north, where an exposure of the Thanet Sand Formation and small inliers of Lewes ENGLAND 100046223 2009 RESERVED ALL RIGHTS NATURAL CROWN COPYRIGHT. © OS BASE MAP Nodular Chalk Formation are surrounded by sands/gravels from the 17. South London Clays & Gravels Lambeth Group. Again there is no significant change in landform, but the extensive gravel deposits here, and also in the Clapham/Tooting areas to the west, moved downslope by hill wash and solifluction processes, depositing Head alongside the flooded river corridors of the Thames and the Wandle, generally as a result of melting permafrost. 98 London’s Natural Signatures: The London Regional Landscape Framework / April 2010 Alan Baxter REPRODUCED FROM THE BRITISH GEOLOGICAL SURVEY MAP DATA AT THE ORIGINAL SCALE OF 1:50,000.

The two oldest key settlement cores are at Croydon and South Clapham. Elsewhere most built development dates from the Victorian period and the boom in residential development which followed the growth of the railways, although south of Peckham Rye, extending to Streatham Vale, the housing stock is predominantly interwar suburbia. There are high 17. South London Clays & Gravels rise tower buildings in areas that suffered particularly heavy bomb damage in the Second World War and a particularly dense complex of sewage works and heavy industry at Beddington. Whilst the Malden Ruston area to the south west is surrounded by open countryside and farmland, the majority of the landscape type is densely developed, and the open space matrix consists of a fragmented network of historic commons, public parks, playing fields and golf courses maintained as amenity grassland. There are also fragmented small patches of native woodland and hedgerows, typically along railway sidings and in some parks. Alan Baxter London’s Natural Signatures: The London Regional Landscape Framework / April 2010 99 Natural Signature and natural landscape features Natural Stignature: Burgess Park South London Clays and Gravels – Small hedged meadows and large heathy commons set against a backdrop of extensive Clapham Brockwell woodlands on higher land. Common Park Wandsworth The Great North Wood was an exceptionally dense forest, recorded Balham Common Railway in the Domesday Book, which once extended from Selhurst/Elmers Embankments End northwards towards what is now Upper Norwood, Forest Hill Tooting Dulwich & Common and Hatcham/Deptford. By the 17th century significant parts of it Sydenham Hill Woods were Common Land, and little now remains, but fragments of ancient woodland on higher land provide core areas of valuable habitat which could be a priority for future woodland planting. The network of woodlands, hedgerows, small meadows and field ponds at Tolworth Court Farm Fields indicates the likely scale and character of farmland surrounding the woodlands and the floodplain meadows and woodlands in the Hogsmill Valley Nature Reserve suggests how the South Norwood Mitcham Country Park landscape pattern would have varied along river valleys.

  • THE RIVER WANDLE the River Wandle Flows Through the London Boroughs of Croydon, Sutton, Merton and Wandsworth Where It Joins the River Thames
    WANDLE INDUSTRIAL MUSEUM EDUCATIONAL INFORMATION SHEET supporting KS 1/2 History & Geography: H KS2 - a study of..a site that is significant in the locality Gg KS1 – use basic geographical vocabulary to refer to rivers Gg KS2 – understand key aspects of … rivers THE RIVER WANDLE The River Wandle flows through the London Boroughs of Croydon, Sutton, Merton and Wandsworth where it joins the River Thames. It’s main sources are from chalk springs along the foothills of the North Downs around the Carshalton and Croydon areas, although several of these are now dried up. The existing spring sources can be found in Carshalton Ponds, Beddington Park, Waddon Ponds and more recently Wandle Park. The river flows for 19 kilometres (12 miles) falling 58 metres (136 feet) over its length. As a result it is fast flowing compared to neighbouring tributaries such as the Graveney, Norbury Brook and the Bourne streams. This made it very attractive to be used to drive water wheels. It is no surprise that in 1805 the Wandle was described as “the hardest worked river for its size in the world” due to the numerous water mills along it. It also had the reputation of being the best trout fishing river in the country, frequently used by Lord Nelson when visiting Merton. The origin of the name of the river is unclear. It is likely that Wandle, and that of Wandsworth, is derived from Saxon “Wendlesworth” meaning “Wendle’s settlement”. The charter of AD 693 called it the hlida burnon or highbourne meaning “loud stream”. The earliest reference to the current name is in 1586.
